Yeah. That's pretty solid. Personal DPS wise, it's ahead of the Early opener I made by about 1 GCD and the Delayed opener by 2 GCDs in terms of potency due to the extra Bootshine. And between that and the Early Opener, the question then ends up being how it meshes with other classes's rotations and whether those 2 seconds are enough to fit in another boot before the boss becomes un-targetable.

One thing that draws my attention with the Balance opener, however, is you're pretty much locked into that buff alignment for the remainder of the fight. This means that, in the unfortunate event that Snap is the first GCD to follow RoF, one of the PB GCDs will have to be a Demo, which could bring the number of Boots the rotation results in to fall more in line with the openers I made.

So in the end, I'd say all three are pretty even, more or less.
